Murder: it is?
Kevin: yes man
everything that could have possibly gone wrong, did
and you ended up with a bunch of perfect strangers buttons and a sheep on a pencil
me: hmmm
YOU’RE RIGHT
Kevin: ‘we are the champions’ is playing in my head right now
Murder: it’s like we transcended competition!
Kevin: we outfoxed everybody
it was the surprise ending no one expected
due to massive misdirection on our part

Uhh…
So neither Kevin nor I won the autographed Nelson Mandela picture. Some dude named “ToadlyCrystal” won it, with a bid of $4.90. Needless to say that’s pretty god damn pathetic. Here is what the bid history looked like.
I think it’s funny that we both bricked not only on bidding in the last hour of the sale, but also in the last 24 hours of the sale. I SMELL A REMATCH.
Also, ToadlyCrystal. Just let that name wash over you for a minute.
In other news:
Levi: knock knock.
Murder: who’s there?
Levi: twin towers
Murder: twin towers who?
Levi: YOU SAID YOU’D NEVER FORGET!!!!!!!

LET IT BE KNOWN THAT IN THE SPIRIT OF AWESOME COMPETITION, KEVIN AND I WILL NOW DO BATTLE IN THE WILD JUNGLES OF EBAY FOR THIS AUTOGRAPHED NELSON MANDELA PORTRAIT.

MAN: THE MOST DANGEROUS QUARRY OF THEM ALL!
Actually, the original bounty was supposed to be this set of Perfect Strangers collectible buttons and pencil with a sheep on the end of it, but Kevin decided that since it ended in like a day, there wasn’t enough time for sufficient visceral, edge of your seat bidding action. Too bad I had already entered my first bid of $5.15.

Fuck. Without the competition involved, I want absolutely nothing to do with these buttons.
